Building with Macaw's Biomes O' Plenty Doors and Trapdoors

Doors and trapdoors are essential for any build, and Macaw's Biomes O' Plenty offers a wide variety that match the mod's wood types. You can craft them using the respective planks and sticks, similar to vanilla doors but with more stylistic options.

Crafting Doors and Trapdoors

To craft a door, you typically need six planks of the same wood type arranged in a 2x3 pattern. Trapdoors require six planks in a 2x2 pattern, but some variants like barn doors or glassed doors may need additional materials like glass or iron. For example, a glassed door combines planks and glass panes. Check the recipe in JEI or the mod's recipe book if available.

Installation Tips

When placing doors, ensure you have a two-block-high space. Trapdoors can be placed on the top or bottom of a block; right-click to toggle their state. Some trapdoors, like the barred or barrel trapdoor, have unique textures that suit industrial or rustic builds. Use them for windows, cellar entrances, or decorative accents. Remember that double doors require two separate door blocks placed side by side—they won't automatically pair like vanilla double doors, but you can open them individually.
